What Does Haze Mean for Glass?
Haze describes the scattering of light as it passes through a transparent or translucent material.
Different glass surfaces and patterns can produce different haze characteristics.
In patterned solar glass, the surface texture is therefore one of the factors that can influence how light interacts with the glass.
The required haze should be selected according to the intended solar product and its optical design rather than assuming that a higher or lower value is universally better.
Patterned Surface Creates a Different Glass Structure
Patterned solar glass differs visibly from conventional smooth float glass.
A textured surface can be produced with different pattern designs depending on the required glass specification.
MIGO's current patterned solar glass range includes glass with a hexagonal pattern and suede surface.
This combination provides a defined textured surface for solar applications requiring patterned low iron glass.
3.2mm Glass Offers a Wider Haze Range
Different thickness configurations can also have different available optical specifications.
MIGO's 3.2mm High Haze Ultra Clear Patterned Solar Glass has a specified haze range of 15–70.
The current specification also provides ≥91.5% light transmittance and iron content of ≤150ppm.
For projects requiring larger dimensions, non-standard sizes currently range from 1500 × 1000mm up to 2200 × 2500mm.

Haze Should Not Be Selected Alone
Haze is only one part of solar glass selection.
Before ordering patterned solar glass, buyers should also consider:
- Glass thickness
- Light transmittance
- Iron content
- Surface pattern
- Glass dimensions
- Further processing
- Final application
The correct combination depends on the complete product design and optical requirements.
Selecting Patterned Solar Glass
Different solar applications can require different combinations of thickness, dimensions, surface structure and optical properties.
For buyers evaluating a wider haze range, MIGO's 3.2mm patterned solar glass provides a 15–70 haze specification, together with a hexagonal pattern and suede surface.
For quotation, buyers can provide their dimensions, quantity, haze requirement, application, processing requirements and destination market.
